We are so lucky to have had Ruth help take care of our toddler, when she was a newborn, and now our newest baby. We  really can’t say enough good things about her. She is a pleasure to work with, is such a calming presence,  always on time, conscientious, respectful, tidy. She clearly loves what she does, and is excellent at it. She understands babies intuitively, and will also help you understand and manage your baby better. We are so grateful to have her. 

Ruth is exceptional. My daughter is 6 months old, and Ruth has been caring for her part-time since she was 2 days old. Ruth is a professional and full of knowledge about newborns. She comes to work, and she starts by washing her hands before she goes to get my baby girl. Ruth makes sure everything and everywhere around my baby girl is clean. Ruth’s care and tips have helped my baby girl reach appropriate developmental milestones. We have Ruth come every other weekend to help with overnight care, and she has got my daughter sleeping 9/10 hours through the night.
Ruth is a blessing. 

Ruth was wonderful with our 8 week old baby. Unfortunately the commute was too far for her so we only had her for a few days. Ruth helped recommend someone to replace her who has also been great. 

One of the best decisions we made for our son, was hiring Ruth. First, she loves Jesus and that was very important to us. She is very consistent, reliable and a master at routines. Also, one of the cleanest people we’ve ever had in our home. She routinely washed our son’s toys, in addition to her other duties. Was very mindful of people washing their hands before touching him. She’s punctual & flexible! I highly highly recommend hiring Ruth. You won’t regret it. 

Ruth is the definition of a professional. She watched my 16 week old boy and put me at ease. She provided updates every 90 mins. She engaged with him quickly and I could tell he was very happy and comfortable interacting with her. I almost don't want to rave too much because I need her to be available for ME when I need her again. She deserves every star and more! 

Ruth helped watch my 6 month old and was absolutely wonderful! She was on time, nurturing, understanding, and is a pro at putting our 6 month old to bed! Would definitely love to have her back for date nights!

Ruth was amazing with our (almost) one year old daughter. She was punctual, dependable and communicated well with us. Within a few minutes of meeting Ruth, we felt like we had known her for a long time. She immediately bonded with our daughter and took care of her very well! She helped us with our goals of keeping our daughter on a schedule, took her on walks, played with her, read to her, helped to get her eating more, and gave us tips/advice that we very much appreciated as first-time parents. Our time would Ruth was cut short due to her family emergency, but we would have loved to have Ruth as our long-term nanny!

Great with kids!  Would definitely hire again

Ruth was an AMAZING babysitter for my 3 year old son during a school closure while I was working from home. He sometimes has trouble warming up to other babysitters but he took to Ruth right away. They played all day, she kept him entertained and laughing, and she prepared lunch for him, did bath time, and helped him nap. Most importantly, he didn't need any intervention from me like he normally would with a new babysitter when I'm at home working. I was very impressed with her intuition with him and can't wait to hire her again for future needs!

Ruth is amazing. She worked for me a few days weekly, and all I see is her love and care for my baby. 
She is reliable and very hardworking
